DXC’s vision goes beyond delivering excellence for our customers. We are committed to delivering excellence for our communities too. We achieve this through our focus on social value – the positive impact we create for society through the work we do. Our UK Social Value Practice strives to contribute to a better world through impact-driven programmes – for people, for our planet, and to protect our supply chains.
DXC Dandelion Programme
The DXC Dandelion Programme provides an environment that supports and celebrates the talents and skills of neurodiverse people — such as those with Autism, ADHD or Dyslexia — and helps them build valuable skills to pursue a career in information technology. We have employed 15 neurodiverse individuals across the UK in our first intake, with the intention to grow to 24 in the first year. More information.
